Troost-Ekong Says Super Eagles Will Use Different Playing Styles Against Russia
Super Eagles captain William Troost-Ekong has shared how the team plans to handle their upcoming friendly clash with Russia in Moscow on Friday. Speaking at a press conference hosted by the Russian Football Union, Troost-Ekong explained that the team won’t stick to one playing style. Instead, they’ll mix things up on the pitch.
“I can’t give too much away since the coach is here,” he joked. “But we’ll definitely try to combine different approaches. We have a clear idea of what to do.” He also mentioned that the squad is still adjusting under their new coach, having only started working with him earlier this year. He sees the game as a valuable opportunity to grow stronger as a team.
“There are some new faces in the squad,” he added. “It’s a big moment for them to show they can live up to what the coaches expect.” The Super Eagles are coming off a penalty shootout win over Jamaica last Sunday in the 2025 Unity Cup, where the match ended 2-2 in regulation time before Nigeria edged it 5-4 on penalties.
Nigerian footballer Victor Osimhen spoke about his childhood days and the difficult experiences he faced growing up.
He revealed that his mother was the breadwinner of the family and that her death deeply affected them.
“My mom was the breadwinner of the family, but she and my dad never had issues because of it.”
He shared that when his mother passed away, they not only missed her emotionally but also struggled financially without her support.
Fans related to his story and applauded how he has now risen to greatness.
It has been revealed that Ruben Amorim’s possible next step could be taking over as Benfica’s manager, replacing José Mourinho at S.L. Benfica.
It can be recalled that the manager was released from Manchester United F.C. in January and has since been seeking his next step.
He has now emerged as the top candidate to become Benfica’s new manager.
Rio Ferdinand has reacted to talks surrounding Xabi Alonso and the managerial position at Real Madrid.
It was reported that Xabi Alonso had signed a contract with the club to become their manager.
Ferdinand then shared his thoughts on the move “I’m genuinely surprised he’s taken that position. I’m not suggesting he’s the wrong choice.
“The reason I’m taken aback by his decision is that I thought he would have been patient enough to see how the Arne Slot situation at Liverpool would unfold.”
He explained that Alonso could have possibly become Liverpool manager with enough time and also spoke about Alonso’s love for the club.
